Jim B Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Tamiya Medium Blue XF-18 is a decent match, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Look in your yellow pages for a local Detroit Diesel Distributor,Warrently,and Repair shop. Go to the parts department buy ya a can (if ya absolutly have to have the exact color). I did that several years ago. Here in Columbus,Ohio I know several mechanics that work at W.W. Williams Detroit Diesel/Carrier Refridgeration. After BS's with them in the parts dept one of my buds just grabbed a half used can off his tool box and gave it to me. LOL The paint is called Series 60 Blue. Edited October 13, 2011 by Semi Trailer Mechanic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
